Driving a car with a blown rod is highly inadvisable. A blown rod can cause severe engine damage, leading to catastrophic failure and potentially leaving you stranded. Continuing to drive could worsen the damage, resulting in costly repairs or complete engine replacement. It's best to have the vehicle towed to a mechanic for assessment and repair.

Sure it will drive. It will drive right along wearing out the rod and crank bearings. Destroying the piston rings and eating the metal off the cylinder walls, wearing out the lifters, and generally self destructing. As you can see, you should not even start this engine let alone drive it one mile. Have it repaired or you will be buying another engine.

Why does your car suddenly use more water?

If you mean it suddenly started loosing coolant, then look for a leak. If you see no leak then suspect a blown head gasket. Stop driving the car until you get this repaired. If you continue to drive a car with a blown head gasket you will destroy the engine.
